I put my foot on the ledge today
memories and emotions swarmed over me.
And you know what?
I fucking hate you.

Through shaky breaths of denial
And shattered dreams all over my floor
I walked through them with an air-
I don’t need this world, I’m better.

Down below, the people creep
Ants of society, we call ourselves humans
You’re nothing but fucking pathetic.
You damn ass of a society.

Screaming voice atop that ledge
Few look up, most don’t hear.
My wind sweeps the sound away.
But inside their minds, they know.
They all know.

Laughter fills the old apartment room
the melodic tones wake the man.
Just in time to see the mess on the floor
Of blood and knives and needles and drugs.
She broke her promise, she broke all the promises.

A glance at the man, once called Dove-
A wink, a wave, and then a final jump.

She was nothing but fucking pathetic.
A damn ass of a society.
Ruining everyone, everything she ever touched.
She’s just a virus, a human, a dirty fuck
Like everyone else, that prideful bitch.

First of all, I want to clear up that I'm not suicidal. I dont do any sort of drugs, I'm not going to break my promises to you dove, and I'm trying to stop cutting.

now, this was written for and, because im a slacker, the cut off day for submissions is tomorrow, so i did it today. My topic was "Pride/Anger" so.. there you go.

Now, for the meaning in this piece.. I watched forest gump recently, and the character Jenny, I related to very well at times, and it was scary. Though I told a friend, if I ever start doing drugs I'd end up like Jenny's bad days, and I would have actually jumped the ledge. This is suppose to represent every thing I could do to fuck what I have up. This is a horrible, horrible thought. And its why I wrote it, for "Disturbing Emotions" Because its damn disturbing to me. (love you dove, don't take this literal)

Also, some of these emotions I did pick from myself. And altered the reality of what I am, to fit this poem. But just with words, and to intensify the situation, but at times.. this emotion is here. Coping with cutting is hard enough for me. I can't image trying to get me off heroine.. ugh, that would suck.

But yet, I hope you get something out of it. Enjoy.

I've felt this, and humiliated myself in the process, because my self worth was so low it didn't exist. Never stood on the ledge..I took comfort in a bottle of pills..

I'm l ucky to be here.
Poor Jenny
No ..wait, not poor Jenny.. no pity
She was strong and came through

Same as most of us do.

Well written.

Those are some very strong emotions. Very strong. The bitterness is just prevalent...it's so amazing how you always manage to channel these raw emotions into writing. It's great. =) (Smile)

^ That's like a line I would write... about myself. :( (Sad)

Great poem, full of meaning and it flowed. The story is nicely wrapped in emotions. Nod

Sorry my comments haven't been the best lately...
this was really excellent. i enjoyed that.

And shattered dreams all over my floor


That's beautiful. The imagery made me want to cry.

I love this. It's so well written, as is everything by you. I'm so envious =) (Smile)

What more can I say?
:flagus::peace:
it's harsh, it's raw, it grabbed me by the throat, and damn.
love it. excellantly written.
oh I love it I absolutely love it. just suin to think about though when you say "needles and drugs" maybe instead of saying drugs directly you could use some metaphors.
this is one of my favorite poems out of the ones youve written. It has a surreal melody that follows it.
